The Goldstorm project is located 3km east of Seabridge’s wholly owned Snowstorm property and is in the Northern Nevada Rift (NNR), a geologic feature known to host high-grade gold-silver mines.
Snowstorm’s 80.3km² of land-holdings are located at the intersection of Nevada’s gold trends, namely Carlin Trend, Getchell Trend and Northern Nevada Rift Zone.
The Goldstorm property comprises 134 mining claims and 1,160 leased acres, totalling around 3,900 acres or 15.9km².
Seabridge chairman and CEO Rudi Fronk said that the acquisition provides potentially valuable targets, as well as insights into the Northern Nevada Rift targets on the east side of the Snowstorm property.

The Goldstorm purchase fits our strategy of expanding our footprint in these highly prospective gold trends where we intend to be a significant player.”
The transaction is expected to close subject to the terms and conditions, and approval of the applicable stock exchanges.
